Just as they were for Ravenhill & Windsor Park, all political parties should unite in working towards the redevelopment of Casement Park to give Gaelic sports a fitting home in Ulster.
Just in … “Ulster GAA is working closely with the Department for Communities, the Irish FA, UEFA and all partners on the redevelopment of Casement Park and we are confident that it will be delivered within the timelines for EURO 2028.”
A sharp & very welcome rebuke to the British PM & DUP who agreed a paper last week actively targeting the all-island economy.
An Taoiseach @LeoVaradkar speaking at the #SharedIsland forum in Dublin Castle says we have both a shared history and shared future on this island. We need a shared infrastructure and all-island economy and he will work with all political traditions to create that shared future.
